It’s Garbage

This revisal if 1776 was wildly unnecessary. The conceit and casting adds ZILCH to the story, other than an opportunity for them (the Roundabout and the cast) to hit us over the head with wokeness and self-righteousness. It’s absolute garbage. Nothing more and NOTHING less. An excuse for a “revival” that was unnecessary in inception, let alone execution.


In short, the Roundabout screws it up again.

Dramedy's post was about a season schedule and you chose to hijack that and make this about what you like and don't like in a single production. Why?

I have no problem with you starting a thread (it's pretty easy on here) and discussing the lack of merit in this production, if that's how you see it, or anything else. (It may be that you already have, I don't recall, or perhaps you have already hijacked other threads to make this same point. It wouldn't surprise me.) For the record, there are those who loved this production but I am not one of them. Hijacking? Nope, not a lover of that either.

Roman should go start his own thread and continue his tirade there.

I haven't seen this production.

However, I can understand the goal whether it is achieved or not.
As a non-Black person of color, I am very glad they gave this production a "shot".

I despise phrases like "wokeness".

As for self-righteous, look in the mirror. Your post is that.

I’m actually all FOR wokeness. Except when I’m beaten about the ears and face with it and told its reason enough. And, sure, even then. But when it’s backed up by a dreadful production that loses its own point while trying to make an evening of it.

But, sure. I’m the self-righteous one. Good to know, toots.

So, when you say it is reason enough then it is reason enough, but no one else gets a say????

bye bye toots
